blog!
I read your entire blog since we are planning a trip with our 11 y.o. son down to Peru & Bolivia in July for 3 months!! Reading about the Galapagos makes me realize that there's no going down to that area of the world without visiting the Galapagos and your blog made me realize that we can do it fairly cheaply by just flying in and winging it from there!! Thanks so much for the info and very nice writing! us in Flagstaff

Great Blog! Looking for info
Hi, Thanks for sharing your blog it is great, well written. We are coming to Galapagos next week and plan to travel the same was as you. I was just wondering about accommodations. You said your hostel there was loud, did you move? Any suggestions for our trip would be fantastic. We just set up a blob on this site ourselves and are new to blogging. Do the photos get organized on the entry by themselves, or do you arrange them. I tried a test entry today, but the one photo I put up ended up at the bottom of the page under a large add. Any suggestions would be fantastic, if you don't have time due to your trip that is great as well. I will continue to read your posts for information. Thanks again for the blog.

Hi, sorry I just got your message. Hope you are having a wonderful time in the Galapagos! To answer your question we never did change hotels from the noisy Northia, but would recommend a room away from the street. There are several accomodations on the island and it seemed like most had rooms available upon arrival, except for a few small and popular ones. The photos can be arranged manually by just clicking and dragging once they are uploaded.

Volunteering at the The Love Company Orphanage Ow!
My experience at The Love Company orphanage in Pokhara I really enjoyed volunteering at this orphanage. I stayed here for two months. My duty as a volunteer was to play with children, walk them to school, help them with their English, hug them and be there for them in the first place. The children were always very happy and motivated to learn new things. They enjoyed playing games both out and inside. They are really happy when some volunteers are around, they really enjoyed their presence. There were fourteen children at the orphanage while I was there. At the beginning of my stay, the children went to school so we walked them to the school and helped them with their homework when needed. Then we had free time so we could meet other volunteers, go to a café or visit some nice places. In your free time you also can go trekking (depends on season), paragliding, sightseeing and many more. After a few weeks, the holiday started, so children spent most of the time at the children home. That was the great opportunity to interact with the children more. I really liked spending the time with the children, it was a fantastic and a life-changing experience. I would recommend this programme to anyone. It was a great experience and I enjoyed every second of it. It is also very rewarding since you can see you really have made a difference and helped the children a lot. They give everything back twice and you can see how happy and satisfied they are, even when you just hug them or laugh with them. Also, spending two months in Nepal was a perfect opportunity to get to know other culture and a foreign country. Especially Pokhara, where the orphanage is located, is a very beautiful place which most tourists visit and it is near the mountains and lakes. There are many beautiful villages nearby, too. To sum up, the time I spent at the Love Company was great, I absolutely enjoyed it and would come back any time. The children were really happy and I also loved the area where the orphanage is situated. I would very much recommend it to anybody who is thinking of going, it is really worth it and you help the children so much. If you have any questions about volunteering at this orphanage, feel free to contact me, I will answer all your questions – lucmolnarova@gmail.com

Everything you wrote about your bus ride in Nepal brought back the horror of our bus rides there and in India--making me incredibly thankful we don\'t experience such crowding on our transportation here in the US.
